Does anyone know of a workaround for piping the sound to the sound card? On Windows and even Linux with VLC/Totem the music works fine, but not if I'm trying to play CD audio through Pygame. I could probably fix it out on the hardware level as suggested, but I can't really expect my users to play around with the internals just to get their program working.
As a last resort I could just default to only reading mp3's/oggs/etc and just include a ripping utility with the program but I'd prefer them to just be able to pop in a CD and play. Thanks for the help thusfar. -Josh On 1/8/08, James Paige <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Tue, Jan 08, 2008 at 02:01:02PM +0100, Bo Jangeborg wrote: > > Doesn't the CD-Audio usually have its own direct connection to the sound > > card.
